Im making a simple raytracer for a schoolproject were a compute shader is supposed to be used to shade a triangle or some other primitive. For this I'd like to write to a backbuffer-surface direct...

I'm really new to DirectCompute technologies, and have been attempting to learn from the documentation on the msdn website, which is.. dense, to say the least. I'd like to make a basic hlsl file t...

I've just started using the Compute shader stage in DirectX 11 and encountered some unwanted behaviour when writing to an output resource in the Compute shader. I seem to get only zeroes as output ...

In a compute shader (with Unity) I have a raycast finding intersections with mesh triangles. At some point I would like to return how many intersections are found. I can clearly see how many inter...

I have a problem with array indexing on GPU in Compute Shader and I'm stuck with it for weeks. I'm trying to use the x value of SV_DispatchThreadID as the index of my particle array (as it is show...

I've recently been playing with compute shaders and I'm trying to determine the most optimal way to setup my [numthreads(x,y,z)] and dispatch calls. My demo window is 800x600 and I am launching 1 t...

I'm wondering about the "grids" of threads/thread groups I can dispatch on the GPU. I'm using Direct Compute so I'll give a concrete example using that API. For example, if I call Dispatch(2,2,2), ...

I'm looking for comparisons between OpenCL and DirectCompute, but I haven't found anything. OpenCL's advantages of being cross-platform and having a wider range of supported GPUs don't matter to me...

I have some (financial) tasks which should map well to GPU computing, but I'm not really sure if I should go with OpenCL or DirectCompute. I did some GPU computing, but it was a long time ago (3 ye...

I understand that C++ AMP is accelerated by GPUs that support DirectX 11. However, my question is, if the compiled C++ AMP program is run on a machine without a DirectX 11 compatible GPU, what happ...

So far the only tutorials I've been able to find are on directx11tutorials.com, which are essentially inferred from the existing samples. Does anyone know where to find other tutorials, or be...
